Narcisse demonstrates a great understanding of color theory and theme as the shots accelerate from fiery and violent to cool and serene, allowing the viewer (and Elsie Fisher in Bo Burnham’s Eighth Grade) to catch a breath before diving into visual vignettes of intense feeling. There’s Michael Stuhlbarg as Sami Perlman in Call Me By Your Name, speaking with vulnerable transparency to his heartbroken son, Elio (Timothée Chalamet) over the longing theme of La La Land. Many of Paste’s film favorites are included, such as Jordan Peele’s horror hits Get Out and Us, the superbly acted Beasts of the Southern Wild, and one of this year’s best, The Farewell.

If there’s that one shot you know you know but just can’t place, fear not. Narcisse also tweeted out a list of all the films included, which could serve double duty as a watchlist to return to for years to come.
